"I'm 16." he said, still looking at the table. "And I like being High Priest."

"Do you? I would hate it. You're a strong person. I mean....shattering bones and not taking anything..." He shook his head, leaning back. "14...and you can't experience anything a kid should. Before you know it, life's going to pass you by...and you'll regret not having fun...or drinking soda," he swirled his glass of foaming soda, looking off to watch the crowd passing them.

"Well, I don't regret it." he said.
He really didn't!!
Xulle finished his ice cream and slurped at his soda. "Alyvyll can't get cut, he can't eat anything yummy, he can't hug anyone, AND, mom says he can't have sex!"
Alyvyll made a noise and turned bright red.

Rylton made a sound in his throat, scratching his cheek. "Kid....that's bit revealing," he chuckled, shaking his head.
"So....basically, you're your parents ornament. They control your life ccording to the temple....I don't see why parents believe they can control a persons life." He shrugged off the topic, as the boy seemed to be getting uncomfortable.
"So...how was the ice-cream, good apology?" He asked the younger boy, glad they were in the shade.

He nodded happily, "Great!!! Thanks a lot! want a candy bar?"
Alyvyll looked away, and watched the people passing by. How could this guy just suddenly try and tell him WHAT he should feel. WHAT he should live his life like???

"That's okay. You take it home, keep a stash of them,"he chuckled. The life-bearer returned, nd he paid their bill, standing.
"So...what it is you are allowed to do?" He asked, allowing Xulle to attach to his arm.

Alyvyll stood, and watched his feet, staying silent.
"He can't do anything." Xulle said, giggling a bit. "Ah! I have to go home!! Mom's gonna be mad!!" Xulle waved and darted off before his brother could even utter a word.
Great...he left him here...with this...person.
He didn't know his way back to the Temple!!! He never left it!!!!

Rylton stared after the boy, before looking at Alyvyll. "He was sure in a hurry. Won't he get in more trouble for leaving you out on your own?" He asked, running a and through his hair.
This is the kid he tensed up around....where the uncomfortable, gut turning feelings came from. Not to metion the guilt....
"Hey...I know it's probably against temple rules," he shrugged. "But....I could probably find something for the pain...are you sure it doesn't hurt?" He motioned to his arm.

He held his damaged arm protectively, gritting his teeth and letting go of it quickly when the sharp pain erupted. "I'm fine. I can't have medicine." was his short reply.

"My ass, you aren't at the temple anymore." He deadpanned. "I'm not a pervert or anything. Come to my apatment and i'll see what we can do. Your parents needed to take care of that. It could stay fractured for a long time, heal wrong. Then you won't be able to move it for the rest of your life," he looked at him.
"Sound like fun to you?"

"..no..." he grumbled, "But I can't. If I do, I'll get in trouble. I'll become impure. I already have to purify myself the rest of the day once I get back to the temple."

"And who's going to know you took medicine?You....me? I won't tell, if you don't," he joked, taking his good arm unfearfully, leading him towards his apartment.

"What are you doing?!" he hissed. "Let go! If someone sees...I'll get in trouble! You're not supposed to touch me! No one's supposed to touch me!!"

He turned on him, face irritated. "No one's ever seen your face. So, even if they did see me touching you, the'd think you were merely my brother, or a cousin. Don't cause a scene," he warned.

He glared at him, "What if someone from the temple saw??? A Monk??? A Priest?!" He asked, already being dragged up steps.
